Long time no post, huh? Sorry about that folks.I’ve been spending money left and right, but not in a good way. After 16 years and over 300,000 miles, my amigo finally gave it up. Could I restore her? Sure. Will I? No. It’s time to move on.

I'll always have the drawing I made...

The box up there is the first part I’ve bought in awhile. After getting 10 spoke rims for it, I finally splurged and got the center caps!

They were reasonably priced, so it was a good sign. I ordered the headliner today. Some of you know that I’m a big believer in latemodelrestoration. They have the best deals and shipping over a certain amount is free! Of course, I live closer to CJ’s pony parts, but they were complete pricks to me in the past for my 66′ mustang rebuild, so NOPE!

I got a couple of packages from latemodelrestorations.com today! It’s almost time to begin wowing the interior and after Carlisle, I’m anxious to get started!
After years of using other companies for my parts on my other stangs, it seems weird that a relatively new company like this could be so well organized. They even have instructional videos on YouTube! And even though I have all of the catalogs, their prices seem to be a LOT better. Anyway, that’s my plug. My next order will be a five lug conversion kit.

Parts of it will require the tricky application of fiberglass or a plastic polymer, while others are available as cheap parts. I don’t cherish the idea of spending $30 on a $40 assembly, but since it usually goes for $150, it’s still a bargain. Besides, in the end I’m going to paint it blue…
